Repcoat
S

Solvent based high performance aliphatic acrylate protective coating

Description:

Repcaot S is ready for use, single component, aliphatic acrylate coating for external and internal use over variety of concrete and masonry substrates. The system also includes an under coat of a silane-siloxane base which when used with Repcoat S will provide maximum protection against chloride ingress and carbon dioxide diffusion.

Repcoat S Primer is a penetrating hydrophobic silanesiloxane base which when applied will react with concrete and masonry producing a clear hydrophobic barrier that prevent the passage of water and hence protect exposed reinforced concrete structures from attack by chloride ions.

Usage

Repcoat S is an excellent protective and decorative fair face coating which can be used for many applications including:

Retaining walls.
Bridge abutments.
External concrete of storage tanks.
Multistory buildings and villas.
Pre-cast elements and concrete cladding.
Commercial and Industrial complexes.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

SURFACE PREPARATION

Surface preparation is very important to get a good quality finish and best performance. Any surface to be coated must be clean, sound and free from oil, grease, curing compound, or any contamination. Any contaminants should be removed by light grit blasting.
Surfaces containing slight surface imperfection or blowholes should be filled with a skim coat of cementitious repair mortar such as Cemfair PF. Deep holes and defected areas should be repaired with cementitious products from DCP-Repair range.

APPLICATION

The prime coat should spray or brush applied at the rate of 0.2 litres per square meter. It is recommended to apply two coats of Repcoat S at the stated rate of application.
The first coat should be applied evenly by roller, brush or airless spray machine at a rate of 0.16 litres per square meter and allowed to dry.
The second coat should be applied perpendicular to the first coat at the rate of 0.16 litres per square meter.
Repcoat S needs to be thinned up to 5% by weight when using airless spray machine.

CLEANING

Tools and equipment can be cleaned with DPC-Solvent when wet. Dried Repcoat S should be removed using DCP-Solvent or mechanically.

HEALTH & SAFETY

As with all paints, care should be taken during use and storage to avoid contact with skin, eyes and mouth.
Wear suitable protective clothing, gloves and eye/face protection.
Should accidental skin contact occur, remove immediately with plenty of clean water. If swallowed, seek medical attention immediately - do not induce vomiting. Please refer to the relevant Health and Safety Data Sheet for detailed information.
Repcoat S and Repcoat S primer, and DCP primer are flammable.
Ensure adequate ventilation. Do not use near a naked flame and do not smoke during use.
